It was a beautiful and striking reply, given by one in affliction, who, when asked how it was that he bore it so well, replied, "It lightens the stroke, I find, to draw near to Him who handles the rod." Tryon Edwards, 1809-1894 (American theologian and editor; grandson of Jonathan Edwards.)
In the world you will have tribulation. But take heed; I have overcome the world (John 12:15).
